Lifeline

Follow the lifeline I labeled so neat
Through every lifetime from scars that run deep
Follow the love tracks, unrivaled, unmatched
Book me the right train, I'd love to nip back

Set up high above the Pyrenees
Set up high on the road of release
My brain, my arms, my chain, my charms
My aims, my itch, my foes, I've licked
My bed of flame my name

Spread myself round again
Spilled out my guts again
Think I might lay down again
Stitch me up, I'm torn again

Follow the pipeline, I laid it so deep
It flows out my window, it flows out to sea
It curls round the mountain, it takes up the slack
Book me the right plane, I long to nip back

Set up high above the Pyrenees
Set up high on the road of relief
My lies, my lust, my truth, my trust
My league, my school, my game, my rules
My bed I've made, my grave

Spread myself round again
Spilled out my guts again
Think I might lay down again
Stitch me up, I'm torn again

My eyes, my hips, my face, my lips are failing me
Combined with mixed up living
My victory is escaping me

Spread myself round again
Spilled out my guts again
Think I might lay down again
The lifeline slips away
